[See NewsBusters for more.] MSNBC reacted to the acquittal of Donald Trump in the Senate with a predictably unhappy tone, speculating about the day when the truth will really come out. But Brian Williams took it a step farther and questioned the faith of certain unnamed senators. Liberal Washington Post columnist Eugene Robinson praised the spirituality of Mitt Romney, the only Republican to vote to convict Trump: “He's really a man of faith.... He made a solemn oath and took that very seriously and that's a rare thing.” Williams chided others for not living up to this standard: “A lot of the 99 [other senators] insist faith is central to their lives. They were not so burdened by the oath.”
